Abstract

The subject of work in compressed air is reviewed. Detailed reference is made to operations which were carried out in Brisbane for the foundations of the Story Bridge. For "stage decompression" in air-locks a chart is developed with a uniform standard of protection in the terms of the theory, over a wide range of working conditions.
